Dear Experts,
I have 2 pc's (f.e: PC a and PC b) both connected to a network. Both PC's uses the same network share folder.
Is it possible to execute a powershell scripts on PC B from PC A using the network share.
Greetings, P

You can execute powershell scripts remotely (doesn't matter where they reside) provided you have enabled remoting in Powershell (WinRM) and you provide the appropriate credentials to perform the operation on the remote machine or are using an account that has appropriate permissions.
How to run remote commands is documented here.
Hi, I know there is a better way. But is it possible the way i describe :)
I don't understand. Your question was could you run a script on PC B from PC A. Yes you use the WinRM commands. You said the script was on a network share. That doesn't matter in the least. The script can be anywhere because PC A will read the script, pass it to the remote instance on PC B and PC B will run it. Whether the script is local to the first computer or accessible to both doesn't matter.
If you want to run a PS command on a remote machine without WinRM then this no longer a PS question. But rather you now want to run an arbitrary command on a remote machine. The supported ways of doing that include using PSexec, WMI (but requires WMI to be configured for remoting) or use a third party tool. However WinRM is already installed and on by default in some OSes so I cannot imagine why you wouldn't use it.
